Community Spirit
This award recognises the contribution made by students to the wider community.
This could be by offering support to a disadvantaged group or volunteering with a community project.
If you have made use of your skills to raise funds or create opportunities for others by delivering activities that educate or train staff or volunteers, this is the category for you.
This category is all about using your time, skills and enthusiasm to have a positive impact on a local, national or global community.
2013 winner
Sidney Parker (Stage 4 Medicine)
Sidney raised a considerable amount of money for charities including 'Go Help' and 'Wish upon a Star'.
He organised a mammoth 193 mile coast to coast walk and is currently setting up a non-profit organisation 'Medics2Mongolia', which stemmed from his 10,000 mile fundraising drive in an ambulance to Mongolia, before undertaking voluntary medical work in the country.
